Robyn Embodies 'Sexistential' Vibes on The Late Show
Last night, pop sensation Robyn took to the stage of The Late Show to showcase her highly anticipated new single "Sexistential" and its accompanying album of the same name. The Swedish songstress performed a dynamic rendition of the track, dancing and sprawling across the stage floor as she rapped about having one-night stands while 10 weeks pregnant via IVF.
Intriguingly, Robyn revealed that the inspiration for the track came after Andre 3000 claimed no one would want to hear him rap about getting a colonoscopy. This bold move sparked her creativity and ultimately led to writing a rap about IVF – a unique subject matter for an artist known for her catchy pop anthems.
The album, co-produced with Åhlund, marks Robyn's ninth studio release after 2018's "Honey". According to the singer, the material is meant to evoke a sense of emotional intensity and vulnerability. In an interview statement, she explained that exploring her sensual life is akin to creating music – it requires effort and dedication to maintain the delicate balance between sensuality and sensitivity.
Robyn previously debuted the single at a New Year's Eve show in Brooklyn, where she also performed "Talk to Me", the album's debut single. The track showcases Robyn's signature blend of pop hooks and introspective lyrics, with the added layer of emotional depth provided by her experiences with IVF and pregnancy.
As for the album title, "Sexistential" was initially an inside joke before Robyn realized its profound significance. She believes that exploring one's sensual life is a vital part of staying horny – not just about sex, but also about embracing feelings of attraction and sensuality without letting external factors dictate her emotions.
With "Sexistential", Robyn is poised to take the music world by storm with an album that promises to be as emotionally charged as it is sonically captivating.

i mean, who wouldn't want to hear about getting down on a IVF cycle lol? but seriously, Robyn's always been known for her bold moves and "Sexistential" is no exception - like, taking inspiration from someone saying you can't rap about something and turning it into a whole album is genius 
i'm all about artists pushing boundaries and taking risks with their music. can't wait to dive in and listen to this album - any other fans out there? 
she's been lowkey dropping some fire singles and this 'sexistential' vibe is everything 
it's so refreshing to hear her being vulnerable on stage. i'm intrigued by the idea that exploring sensuality can be just as emotional and intense as creating music itself 
can't wait to dive into the whole album and see how she pushes boundaries with this new project 
gotta say, this whole 'Sexistential' thing got me thinking... like, what's really going on here? Is Robyn just being real about her experiences or is she trying to make some kinda statement about society's expectations on women? And that line where she says exploring her sensual life is vital for staying horny... yeah, it sounds kinda weird. 
I'm not saying it's a bad thing or anything, but maybe there's more to it than meets the eye. What if this whole album is just a way for Robyn to subtly challenge our norms around sex and emotions? Like, she's using her music as a form of subversion? 
the way she raps about having a baby on IVF is so underrated 
and the lyrics are fire 
can't wait to dive in and explore all the feels
